I recently stopped taking my iron tablets and I've noticed that my skin is getting more pigmented. I'm really curious if this will go away now that I've quit the pills. Is this something normal, or should I be worried?

I'm dealing with a situation where I had corns on my toes because of my footwear, and I used salactin paint to try and fix it. While the corns have settled down a bit, I accidentally put some of the salactin on my normal skin, and now it's more damaged than the corns were. I've been trying to rub off the affected skin but haven't had any luck, and it's been almost a month now. What should I do?

I've developed some rashes on my hips that resemble an infection and they're really itchy. I tried using itch guard but it didn't help. I'm quite concerned about it. Could you please advise me on what to do next?

Sounds like you may have a fungal infection. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer to the affected area twice a day for 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg once daily to help with the itching. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and wear loose-fitting clothing. If the rash does not improve or worsens, please follow up with a healthcare provider.
